## Recent parent reviews

- **4/5** — Mixed Start, but Potential: We've had a mixed experience so far at Corley Academy. My daughter loves the school uniform and the sports facilities are great, but I'm not entirely sure about the communication with parents - it feels a bit hit-and-miss sometimes. The staff seem friendly and the values of the school are definitely something we can get behind, but it's still early days for us. *(Oct 2022)*
- **5/5** — Best School Experience Ever!: My son has been at Corley Academy for a year now and it's been a game-changer. The staff are so supportive and understanding, and the outdoor learning facilities are amazing. We love the emphasis on community and inclusion - it's a really welcoming environment for all students. *(Feb 2022)*
- **4/5** — Excellent Support for SEND Students: I have nothing but praise for Corley Academy, which supported my daughter through some very challenging times. The school's commitment to autism education and inclusion is truly impressive, and the staff were always available to offer guidance and support. The facilities are modern and well-maintained, and the school's values really shine through in everything they do. *(Jun 2021)*
